The closer it is to the due date, the more likely the mother will become panicked, because during this period, the fetus may be born at any time. However, while the mother is in a panic, she and her family must also make appropriate preparations for delivery so that they can better welcome the arrival of a new life. The preparations required for caesarean section and natural birth are different, so what do you need to prepare before caesarean section? What to prepare for before a caesarean section One day before surgery, expectant mothers should have a light dinner and eat in moderation. Do not eat within 8 hours before surgery, so do not eat after midnight to ensure intestinal cleanliness and reduce intestinal bloating. It can also reduce the incidence and degree of vomiting during surgery. The following things need to be prepared before giving birth: 1. Adult items 2 sets of long-sleeved pajamas, 2-3 pairs of cotton socks (large, loose), cloth shoes (the kind with very soft soles), 3 pairs of underwear (elastic and loose at the waist), straws (for drinking water), 2 towels, a washbasin, and a foot basin. 2. Baby items Prepare 2-3 sets of baby clothes, hats, socks, etc., milk powder (buy small bags, if there is enough breast milk, the large bags will be wasted if not finished), bottles, milk brushes, diapers, talcum powder, and gauze towels. 3. Cash and ID Household registration booklet, marriage certificate, identity cards of both spouses, birth permit, maternity health booklet, maternity health card, etc. The cost of a normal delivery is 1,500-3,000 yuan; the cost of a caesarean section is 5,000-7,000 yuan, depending on the specific items and the level of the hospital. 4. Daily necessities Paper towels (2 rolls), toilet paper, clothes hangers (for washing clothes in the hospital), lunch boxes (the kind that can be used in microwave ovens, can heat up food, soup, etc.), soup spoons, parasols (for discharge from the hospital). Dietary considerations before cesarean section 1. It is not advisable to abuse high-end tonic products before cesarean section. Such as Korean ginseng, American ginseng, and squid. Because ginseng has cardiotonic and stimulant effects, squid is rich in organic acid substance - EPA, which can inhibit platelet aggregation and is not conducive to postoperative hemostasis and wound healing. 2. Do not eat within 6 hours after cesarean section. During laparotomy, the intestinal tract is irritated, which stimulates the intestinal function, slows down intestinal motility, and causes gas accumulation in the intestinal cavity, which can easily cause abdominal distension after surgery. After 6 hours, it is advisable to take some gas-relieving foods (such as carrot soup, etc.) to enhance intestinal peristalsis, promote gas discharge, reduce abdominal distension, and make urination and defecation smooth. 3. Postpartum women should also eat less or no foods that are easily fermented and produce a lot of gas, such as sugars, soybeans, soy milk, starch, etc., to prevent abdominal bloating. After the mother has passed gas, her diet can be changed from liquid to semi-liquid. The food should be nutritious and easy to digest. Such as egg soup, porridge, noodles, etc., and then the diet will gradually return to normal depending on the mother's physical condition. |
